The thyroid gland is the master metabolic gland in the body. It is also very sensitive to environmental factors, auto-immunity and chronic stress. Hypothyroidism (low thyroid function) is one of the most commonly treated conditions in the United States, though very few doctors look for the root cause of why the thyroid is underperforming. Clients often complain of unexplained weight gain, brain fog, fatigue, dry skin, constipation and hair loss. We evaluate nutritional status and screen for causes of auto-immunity to help heal and revere thyroid impairment. Hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid function) often goes undiagnosed for people with anxiety, heart palpitations and or digestive disturbances. People with hyperthyroidism are at risk for long-term harm to their heart without proper intervention. We utilize diet, herbs and supplements to correct thyroid imbalances and will happily partner with your primary care physician in making the best decisions for your recovery.
